Lego Sculptures - Aren't these amazing?

I was so awestruck looking at these sculptures. Aren't they just so amazing??!! See more here.

I would love to have such shoes thrown at me :)

And I doubt who wouldn't? :D

swedish illustrator/ designer olle hemmendorff was commissioned, together with 7 other creatives (patrik söderstam, hanna wieslander, marguerite seger, jonas wiehager and fredrik skogkvistby) by nike to interpret a nike sportswear icon. hemmendorff created a burger sculpture of nike's 'air max 90'.

'in the tradition of material innovation of AM 90, I constructed a running shoe using the most powerful, must durable and most delicious material known to man: hamburger.' OH

Food art

I'm sure by now everyone knows how much I 'love' food. Almost my every 10th post is on food :)

Remember a post where I had posted some pictures of artistic lunch boxes? No? Then go here and have a dekho.

And today I found some more of such artistic lunch boxes picture! I find them so cute and lovely that it would be so hard to actually eat them :D

Take a look at some of the pictures here and tell me will you be able to eat these cute lunches?




So artistic and so cute. Aren't they? Wanna see more? Go here.

My song of the moment...

क्या मौसम है, ऐ दीवाने दिल,
चल कहीं दूर निकल जायें..

Its such a lovely weather outside. Why? Coz its raining!! And thats the song that came to my mind while I was driving to work.

Really feel like going for a nice long drive. To stop at a roadside dhaba and have nice cuppa tea! And just chit chat! But what to do. "paapi pet ka sawal hai". So I am sitting at office and sighing.

On a totally off note, this is what I did with the muskmelon peels yesterday night :) I've better pictures of these in my digicam but in the meanwhile do with these phone cam pics:

A very interesting rug!

I just fell in love with this rug the moment I saw it. And I so want to have it!! There are many more amusing rugs at this blog but this one was THE ONE to catch my interest.

Solar Lanterns - great idea!

Don't you think having solar lanterns to light up the house from outside is such a wonderful idea? But if only I had a garden. If only. Sigh...

Anyways, let me not digress :) I saw a nice little solar lantern that glows in the dark so beautifully! It was shaped like a bucket holding the light! Here's the pic of it

Aren't the colors so beautiful? The moment I saw this picture I started imagining them in all kinds of shape and colors! A butterfly, a kite, a cloud, a flower...there could be so many shapes!

Artisitic Lunch Boxes!

I never imagined that someone would be so creative or innovative to think of having such artistic lunch boxes. See the pictures below and you will know what I mean -



Got what I meant? I'm sure I wouldn't want to touch any bit of such lunch boxes as I would just love to look at them like that without ruining them. Even if it meant me going hungry :P

P.S. I wonder what this black stuff is.

My attempts at glass paintings...

I've been wanting to learn and try out my hand at stained glass paintings since very long..since college days if I remember correctly. But don't know why I never got into learn in it then. And when I say stained glass painting, I do not mean the actual actual stained glass which is made out of different colored glass pieces welded together. That requires LOTS of time. So you can just call my attempts as simple glass paintings.

So I finally dived into trying it out about 6 months ago. I've had the time to make only 7 as of now. I need more designs and more glass. I had been using the broken/old glass pieces lying at home till now. But now that I've used up all that were at home, I will need to buy more now.

Here are some that I made recently :

Now I'm looking for more designs to make more. But before that I need to go and buy some colors!

And how can I forget the fiasco that the framing guy did to these paintings! I was so furious! Dunno what he did, but when I went to collect them, he had newspaper impressions on all of the paintings! God only know what he did. He tried to tell me that I gave him when they were still wet and I didn't tell him so. I was so mad and told him if the painting that was done 3 months ago is still called wet, then it was wet!

And when I told him instead of me paying him anything for the framing he should be paying me back for ruining them, he goes its OK if I don't pay him anything. That made me more mad. I was like how can he be so nonchalant about the whole thing. I in fact didn't want to pay him anything but somehow my conscience didn't let me do that. But I still deducted 25% from what I was to pay as his fine. Although from his attitude it made him no difference.

How can people be so indifferent to others? I had to do some more work on them to restore them and i was so relieved when they looked just fine after drying up.
